Astounding! A real "Road to Damascus" event.

You are too credulous. He's just trying to get some credibility back...so he can do it all over next time.

If you've read the Goldstone report, you know these claims of 'not knowing enough' are total hogwash. Any thinking person knew that slapping together a report in a couple of weeks based entirely on taking Hamas' word for what happened in Gaza (he didn't even look at other available documents) was not the way to achieve accuracy. It fulfilled the UN Mandate to a T, however, and that was the point. Goldstone served his masters at the UN, just as he did before in South Africa.

Besides, as skinowski says, the damage is done. It doesn't matter what Goldstone says now. When Israel fights its next war with Hamas, it will be Goldstoned all over again.
